Anyone out there have the largest size Viking drysuit boot, and if so, what fins do you use? I just got a new Viking with gigantic boots and I'm having a heck of a time finding fins to fit these boots.

thanks in advance!
 
XL Jet Fins or if you are a saquach, try the XXL's.
 
XS Scuba Turtle fins!
 
Thanks guys - I also got some recommendations for OMS thrust and slipstream fins. I think I'll be doing some fin shopping this weekend!
 
On dry land, I fit in things with the number 13. In wetsuit boots (either in my wetsuit or over my drysuit "socks"), I can fit in XL Jets. In my lace-up drysuit boots, I fit nicely in Turtles.

In big rubber work boots covered in a very thick layer of hardened concrete (permanently preventing any possibility of foot-first ascents), I could likely still fit in XXL Jets. :D
 
I was just reading about Forcefins....they say they can accommodate large boot sizes.

my Beauchat X-Jets have a really large foot pocket as well. My instructor ordered them to use with his drysuit, and they were too big. They fit my fat feet perfectly.
 
I have a huge pair of "Force" fins that I accidentally purchased on e-bay. They look exact;y like the ones Rob9000 showed in his post. They are at least a size 15 or 16
 
Look into the OMS Slipstream fins XXXL.
